Millions of British internet users could face a huge slowdown in service
next week.

The owners of Europe's biggest data network are threatening to shut down
their system as early as Monday.

Dutch firm KPNQwest, which handles almost half of Europe's internet traffic,
went bankrupt last week.

Now administrators say the network will be closed unless creditors pay all
their debts by Monday.

Freeserve and AOL, Britain's two biggest internet service providers, both
use KPNQwest's network.



So, how do you find out if you might be on their network too?
